Still looking for the Rich Text Box property or method which will inform if
it is in overwrite or insert mode. Does anyone know where it is?

Hi,

this does the rick for me, place a richtextbox and a button on a form

<<<<<code>>>>>
Private blnInsert As Boolean = False

Private Sub RichTextBox1_KeyDown(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As
System.Windows.Forms.KeyEventArgs) Handles RichTextBox1.KeyDown
If e.KeyCode = Keys.Insert Then
blnInsert = Not blnInsert
End If
End Sub

Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As
System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
If blnInsert = True Then
MsgBox("insert = ON")
Else
MsgBox("insert = OFF")
End If
End Sub
<<<<<code>>>>>
